DRESDEN - In the continuing saga of Jason Schaumleffel and the Tri-Valley Local Schools board, board members voted Thursday evening to condemn the 23-year-old board member.

In addition to their monthly request for Schaumleffel's resignation over the handling of the investigation into sexual assault accusations made against him at Muskingum University, the board voted on a second resolution to "censure and condemn board member, Jason Schaumleffel, for his graphic, vulgar and inappropriate posts" on social media.

Screenshots shared with board members show Schaumleffel liked Twitter posts containing racial slurs and sexually explicit content, as well as a post bashing high school army recruiters, calling them "predatory as f--k."

While all the posts, most dated around the end of August and beginning of September and liked by Schaumleffel around the same time, were concerning to board members, the post about army recruiters particularly upset those on the board.

"This just shows that he doesn't have the maturity or intellect for a position like this," board member Eddie Brock said after the board's regular meeting.

Brock and Scott Welker both lectured Schaumleffel about the posts.

"It's sickening that we have an elected board member that does this stuff, and I just can't believe we continue to have to put up with type of stuff at Tri-Valley High School," Welker said. "It's unacceptable, Jason. At this point you need to just resign and leave Tri-Valley schools and get yourself in control and get your life back in order."

During the lecture, Schaumleffel avoided eye contact with the other board members, and abstaied from voting during the roll call on the resolution. The rest of the board voted in favor of Schaumleffel's resignation.

The board has motioned and voted unanimously, with Schaumleffel often abstaining, for his resignation at every regular meeting since his expulsion and banning from Muskingum University came to the board's attention in March 2017. Twice, Schaumleffel voted in favor of his own resignation, but did not actually resign. As a board member, Schaumleffel is paid $120 per meeting for approximately $1,560 per year.

Schaumleffel was also banned from Tri-Valley's campus, school events and having contact with students after he was caught in February texting an 18-year-old female Tri-Valley High School student. In conversations with the student, Schaumleffel encouraged her to spend the night with him, skip school and send him pictures.

Brock said families in the school district have asked why Schaumleffel is still on the board.

"He's an elected official, just like all of us," Brock said. "We cannot remove him from the board. That power lies with the voters."

Schaumleffel's term on the board expires in December 2019.

In reaction to Muskingum University and the school boards' actions, Schaumleffel brought a lawsuit against the university, his two accusers and Tri-Valley superintendent Mark Neal in May. On Thursday morning, counsel for the parties held a teleconference to discuss the status of the case. Neal's lawyer, Bartholomew Freeze, declined to comment on pending litigation.

Following their regular meeting Thursday night, board members, sans Schaumleffel, met in executive session as the litigation committee with Freeze and Sue Yount, counsel for the board, to discuss the status of the lawsuit.

"Once again, we find ourselves dealing with matters that do not pertain to the education of our students," board president Jenny Cox said in a brief statement following the meeting. "This litigation and his conduct are distracting to the mission of both our district and our board."

On Monday, Schaumleffel filed for extended time to respond to Neal's request last week for judgement in the lawsuit. The request is "to enable the parties to focus time and resources on settlement," the courts order reads.
